News broke this morning that Hostess, the company who makes the Twinkie, the Ding Dong, the Ho Ho, Wonder Bread, and other notable household brands is shutting its doors after a failed Union labor negotiation. The company didn’t have the financial reserves to continue operating during a prolonged strike. Yet another example of Unions destroying American business, as nearly all of Hostess’ 18,500 employees are now unemployed. But I digress.

Here are 10 great tweets about the Twinkie.

What am I going to do now? My favorite lunch is a pack of #Hostess#Twinkies washed down with a Five Hour Energy Drink

Running to store to get #Twinkies ! For my grand kids…so 20 yrs from now they’ll have a piece of history.. Still be good to eat then too! — Double A (@AhmedAhmed456) November 16, 2012
